Davina McCall has revealed that she is looking for a man who can be her 'partner' in life.
The TV presenter, 51, divorced from husband of 17 years Matthew Robinson last year and now feels ready to start dating again.
She said: 'What I want is, I want men – and this is for my daughters and for my son and this is for me – to stand next to me as a partner. So everything is a partnership.'

With traditional gender roles changing, Davina told TV host Matt Johnson and life coach Ben Bidwell on The Naked Professors podcast series that finding someone supportive is the most important quality she's looking for.
She said: 'It’s not like ‘I’m going to be at work all day and I’m going to cook dinner for you.'
'We are in a massive time of change. It’s like ‘this is how you can be a man, and find your way as a man and stand next to a woman and support her and she will support you.'
Former flame: The TV host divorced from husband of 17 years Matthew Robinson last year and now feels ready to start dating again
The former Big Brother presenter has opened up about her past battles with mental health, revealing that she spent years trying to fill a 'hole in her heart' with 'drugs and boys'.
She spoke candidly about her struggles, revealing that she's now finally 'happy in her own company'.
She told TV presenter Matt Johnson and life coach Ben Bidwell in an episode set to air on Sunday: 'I am a happy person generally. My glass is always half full. However, I lost that. I went to the darkest of places and I thought I had nothing left.

'I was going to break. Snap. I am very happy in my own company now, but it's taking a long time to get here.'
She added: 'I had a hole in my heart and it was like a sieve. When I tried to fill it up — boys, drugs — it would just go through and nothing would ever block up the hole.
'So it would never fill up and drugs would temporarily fill it and I would feel amazing, whole, loved, cherished and then I would go back to hurting.'
Candid: The star about her struggles in an interview for the inaugural episode of mental health podcast series The Naked Professors, hosted by (L-R) Matt Johnson and life coach Ben Bidwell
Davina's interview comes a year after she announced the end of her marriage to Matthew Robertson, following 17 years of marriage.
Last December, during an appearance on the Is It Just Me? podcast, from the former editor of Glamour Jo Elvin, Davina lauded the effects of fitness on mental health, before acknowledging how men 'don't talk enough' about their issues.
Talking to hosts Jo Elvin and James Williams, Davina admitted women often embark on a new chapter of life during the menopause, rather than retiring into middle age.
She said: 'We as women get to a point where we get to the menopause, and its far from being a time where everything falls apart.'
Heart: She said of her past, 'I had a hole in my heart and it was like a sieve. When I tried to fill it up — boys, drugs — it would just go through and nothing would ever block up the hole'

Revealing women start to put themselves first when the condition hits, after a life of helping others, she added: 'It's like a rebirth, the menopause. It’s a weird thing where women go, what do I want? We've been selfless, we've looked after other people.'
She then went on to compare the attitude of middle-aged women to men, and acknowledged how men don't have any 'role models' to help them battle any insecurities, unlike females.
She said: 'Women think, "I don't care if I appeal to men anymore, I want to feel amazing in myself, and I want to be the version of myself I can be."
'Whereas guys think, "Am I losing my allure? Where am I going, what's my job? That's a mid life crisis for a guy."
You are not alone: By inviting special guests to talk about their struggle’s challenges, Matt and Ben aim to empower their audience to understand they are not alone
Platforms: The brand new podcast will be available on Acast, Spotify and Apple from Sunday
'I feel like we get reborn and we are enjoying complete revelation with women — we have so many women to look up to, so many fantastic role models.
The star then added: 'But men need the same — men don't talk enough.'
Candidly chatting on the podcast, Davina also addressed her famous love of exercise — and confessed she keeps fit for the effect it has on her mental health, just as much of the physical.
Admitting she had lost weight in 2017, after an undoubtedly stressful year following her split from her husband, she explained: 'Yesterday I went for a run at about 2:30.
'The sun was really low in the sky, and it was crisp and so beautiful. I just felt fresh, and my face all tingly and my head really clear... and I just felt good about life.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
